That's not what I said. At the end (at least as far as I was concerned) friends insisted I (and my young wife at the time) see a video of R. in which he pounds his fists on a student. This was not "punching" per se, but (remember I'm recalling events from c. 1985 or so) but someone at the point of total frustration. I never saw this particular confrontation in person and it would have been nice to hear Robindra's side of the story - but he denies it ever happened. All I know is that after that, he disappeared off my radar or the friends who were connected to him. The gig was up. I had already moved on. I do not remember who the person was and just vaguely remember it was a women. I'm now wondering if it was Ann. I'd have to make some phonecalls to refresh my memory. Ann is in a unique place in that not only was she an insider - she remained in R's hometown and thus very likely may have remained in contact with others after the dissolution.
